Almost no joke!

Soda, the last big tooth of France is rounded, slowly heading towards Belgium.

It's about time, the Gaijin thinks, because a change of country is slowly necessary and he is quite curious about the Belgians and their fries.

A lighthouse was visited, a few nuclear power plants were rounded and in the end there was Omaha Beach.

...and somehow I felt very uneasy here, because the history of this beach caused a huge lump in my throat.

Already on the road towards the beach, there are pictures of fallen soldiers every few meters, none of them older than me, and just the thought of the number of dead on this one day really makes me shudder.

To illustrate it and to bring it very vividly before the mind's eye of the dear readership:

Imagine shooting every single person in the town of Hartberg plus the surrounding area and leaving the bodies lying in the street, this is roughly equivalent to the number of dead on that one terrible day.

If you live nearby, this thought should send a chill down your spine.

Was anything learned from it?

When you look at China and the Uighurs, observe the Russian war of aggression, see the radicalization of our language and voting behavior, see the unvaccinated star on armbands, have to listen to Jana from Kassel, see the miserable greed of many companies and people who clearly walk over dead bodies, yes, then I feel like vomiting in a stream due to the stupidity and rawness of the earth's population, and for that reason I am truly glad not to have children that I would have to worry about in the future.

Enough of that!

But that's also what happens with the LULU in cookie form, which are sold here and these cookies also look very suspicious!

'WÄH! Gaijin! Grow up, you miserable swine!' my better self hears the expensive all-female staff already crying out into the world, desperate about the stupidity and culinary ignorance of the writer, and my chief secretary can already see the fetid smell on her face, because that's what she'll do!

P.s.: Orthographic ignorance is an advantage when reading these texts!
